960 CSS Grid System – Sketch, Design, Code
I met Nathan Smith at BibleTech08. A very enjoyable man who also has quite an enthusiasm for web standards based development. At the conference he gave me a sneak peak on a new css grid system that he was developing.
I have used blueprint in the past and enjoyed the ease of building up the layout, but did not enjoy the the less design worthy features like the smallness of margin between columns. Nathan had a similar prospective, which led him to develop a slightly different system.
One of the things I enjoy about Nathan's system is that he has tried to bring the prospective of the grid into the entire process. He includes PDF sketch pages and PSD templates as a part of the download. This gets you thinking about designing on the grid before you even start to touch a bit of code.
Take his system for a test drive: http://960.gs/
I have yet to develop a full fledged site in his framework, but as soon as I do, I will try to post it here with a more through review.
